Katnook EstateProdigy Shiraz 2006
About this product
Coonawarra blockbuster, the Katnook Prodigy Shiraz is a wonderful example of supreme Coonawarra Shiraz. Known to cellar for a remarkable amount of time, this 2006 was borne out of classic Coonawarra vintage that bestowed the perfect growing conditions on Katnook's vineyards. Showing a savoury spice and dark berry fruits with a hint of white pepper, the Prodigy is starting to shed it brutish exterior to reveal an elegance and suppleness that will stay with the wine many a year to come.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
